ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

Traditional Christmas songs from the old and the new world, jazz reharmonized, played in the style of the Hot Club de France and spiced with a dash of Eastern European fire, so awaken to new life. Ancient tunes such as "Every Year Again" or "Lo, how a rose e'er blooming" shine in new sounds, American classics such as "I'll be home for Christmas" or "I'm dreaming of a White Christmas" swing cheekily, and even with earwigs such as "Morning, children, it will give something" or at the inevitable "Silent Night" jazzy strings are raised.
